Default Micro 555 Receiver Max Current?

I have an older HITEC 555 4-channel receiver that I am thinking of using. The question I have is how much current can each channel handle? This project will be using one high-torque HS645 servo that draws 350 mA while in motion with no load, while the standard servo draws about 150-170 mA in the same condition.

Can the Micro 555 handle this much current? I also have an older Supreme 8 that I could use although it doesn't fit quite as nicely into the nose compartment of the plane.
